Al-Kafi, Volume 1 of 8 (Usul al-Kafi) - Compiled by Thiqatu al-Islam, Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Ya'qub al-Kulayni; English Translation by Shaykh Muhammad Sarwar. Al-Kafi - The first and foremost comprehensive book of Hadith of the Holy Prophet, with his Ahl al-Bayt as narrators, dealing with issues of theology and ethics, practical laws such as laws of taharat (cleanliness), laws of worship (prayer, zakat, fasting, hajj and jihad), laws of business, laws of family and social relations, and judicial laws.
The edition before you represents, in part, a synthesis of centuries of research and deliberation over the text of al-Kafi. More importantly, it represents a very modern effort to update this rich tradition of scholarship by addressing the needs, as we see them, of readers living in the 21st Century. In researching each tradition mentioned in this book, ITI's team has painstakingly combed through the fifteen extant commentaries and annotations on al-Kafi, all of which were written around the 17th Century. Where we found their literary analysis and exegesis to be sound and relevant to the modern reader, we simply narrated and, at most, refined their work. Where we found their work to be wanting, or more often, where they had not addressed issues that are now vital to our understanding, we endeavored to fill the void by writing our own original commentary. We believe this book to be a testament to the continued vibrancy and rigor of Islamic scholarship among the Shi'ah, the followers of Prophet Muhammad and his twelve successors.

Introduction:This article has stemmedfrom a question, which was asked about the creation of 'Nafs' and how it relates to 'Ruh'? The topic is extremely complex and has not been dealt with in the previous articles, particlularly when topics of 'Irfan/Maurifat' were explainedwith in the past.1We very much appreciatethis question, as after analysingof Arabic and English translations, it was found that almost in all English translations,including ours, several'Arabic' terms are not translated properly. However, theless than ideal translation of the some of the Islamic terms,would not significantly affect the general reader but will certainly not help in developing a'higher level Maurifat'(understanding the Divine Instructions -mysticism.)The compilation of the Ahadith in this articleis by no means complete as only a fraction of the Ahadith dealing with the subject are cited.Also for the ease of the readers, the Islamic'terms'under discussion, are highlighted in lengthy Ahadith (as most of the readers will only be interestedin the sentences in which these Arabic terms are explained). Some of the lengthy Ahadith related to secondary relevance (to the topic) are cited in the Appendicesto ensure that the articleis infortmative but concise.On Ruh, Nafs, Qalb and Aql'Page 4of 98Introduction:This article has stemmedfrom a question, which was asked about the creation of 'Nafs' and how it relates to 'Ruh'?
